Han Zuo Gaomen

Chapter 532
In early autumn, the tide of the river is high, and several boats along the river are ready to go.

In the slightly drunken warm wind, Wang Bin covered his cup in his thin-breasted cloak with his hand, his face was a little bit drunk, and he said with a smile to everyone at the table: "Thank you for your kindness, but it's getting late, Wang Ming I’m still here, I don’t dare to hang around for a long time.”

When everyone in the banquet heard this, they stopped trying to persuade them, so they all got up and left the banquet, stepped forward to give Wang Bin some kind words, and then they all boarded the car and returned to the capital.

Wang Bin stood on the left side of the road to see each other off, and behind him stood Cao Man of Pengcheng.Cao Man is going to go south with Wang Bin this time, to provide some help for him, and he said to Wang Bin with a smile after the guests who sent him off have almost left, "Brother Shiru left the capital in a low-key way this time, and he didn't make a big deal of it. Otherwise, the guests who come to see them off will be scattered all over the mountains and plains."

After Wang Bin heard the words, he smiled slightly and said: "The family is so popular, it is already the case, and it is normal to go or stay. Why bother to imitate the bluff of a raccoon dog and force others to disturb the public."

Having said that, Wang Bin still feels lonely in his heart.If it was possible, why would he not want to publicize it in the capital, and let the whole city send them off to do a good job for him.But in the process of fighting for the internal history of Kuaiji this time, he has clearly found that his request is indeed a bit out of date, and it hurts the old look of the nostalgia.Even the Taibao didn't say anything special about his departure from the capital, so he was too lazy to publicize it.

After all the guests had left, Wang Bin called his sons to his eyes. Wang Pengzhi, Wang Qiaozhi, Wang Xingzhi, Wang Qizhi, etc. were all adults, which made him quite relieved.It's just that his favorite second son Wang Biaozhi is missing, which makes him feel depressed again.

"Your father is in charge of the state, and he will go to the place where the southern raccoon dogs are entrenched in Kuaiji. Although this trip is not a good one, if you can make one or two contributions, it will be a family legacy! You are in the capital, you must guard your family traditions Self-respect, don't make people laugh at Meng Lang's words and deeds."

Wang Bin looked at his sons and said solemnly.

Since Wang Qiaozhi descended, several Wang's children bowed down to accept orders one after another, not daring to speak of him.

Then, Wang Bin looked at Wang Xingzhi again. This son was his favorite besides Wang Biaozhi, so he had high hopes for him.His tone softened, but his expression was still serious: "Your elder brother is going to follow me to the south, you are already considered the eldest man in the capital, and you have to take on the responsibility of running the house, serving your mother, raising brothers, loving brothers and friends, and you must not slack off .”

When Wang Xingzhi heard this, he respectfully accepted his father's instruction.

After thinking about it, Wang Bin ordered again: "Although the Taibao and I have different ideas and plans, this is a matter between the elders and has nothing to do with the children. You stay in the capital, and you must be polite to the Taibao." , don’t go beyond the rules, and make people laugh at my careless education.”

Wang Xingzhi nodded again and again, indicating that he had written it down.

"Nowadays, you are retreating day by day by chasing emptiness, and advancing day by day by being pragmatic. Your father had a wrong understanding in the early years, but now he is chasing after him vigorously. The little raccoon is becoming more and more respected in the capital, but my son is so lonely. You must keep in mind the teachings of latecomers. In the future, don’t stand guard and be self-sufficient in the capital. My family is originally a family of old honors and food, how can we let this humble wanderer walk in front of us!"

Speaking of this, Wang Bin's face was full of shock and resentment, and his tone gradually became severe: "You should bear in mind the grievances of your father and brother, and use them to encourage yourself, and don't waste your time! "

After teaching his sons earnestly and severely, Wang Bin let them all return to the capital, and he boarded the ship with Cao Man and his entourage.Although he went here by bicycle, he was not alone. Apart from the subordinates recruited from the capital, there were hundreds of disciples and others.Among them, there are many veteran veterans who have traveled from north to south and have been in battle for a long time. If Shen Chong is in Kuaiji, he has enough power to protect himself and fight back!

As Wang Bin and others boarded the ship, other entourages also boarded the ship, including Kong Hun.This time, Kong Hun went south with Kuaiji Juncheng, and he was the head of the county government, so he had a high status, so he naturally boarded the same boat as Wang Bin.

But after seeing Kong Hun boarding the boat, Wang Bin showed an undisguised disgust on his face, and said to Cao Man beside him apologetically, "This time I want to wrong Nagasawa and you go south with me in vain. There is a place to rely on the raccoon. When the situation is straightened out in Kuaiji, I will definitely expel that raccoon and keep him in office for Nagasawa!"

Originally, Wang Bin's preferred deputy was originally Cao Man. Firstly, they were relatives by marriage, and secondly, Cao Man was the wife and brother of the Taibao. Only relying on the support of the central government can suppress Shen Chong and other Nanraccoons, and the relationship with the CPIC should not be too stalemate.With a person like Cao Man in the middle to mediate, there is no barrier to communication.

However, like the internal history of Kuaiji, an important reference index for Taichung's selection and appointment is the township theory, which is how the local people evaluate the candidates.Those who can make the theory of hometown are naturally those Taiwanese officials who are born in Kuaiji.If their evaluation of Wang Bin is too bad, then even if Taichung makes a tough decision, it will not get local support.

Wang Bin's appointment was stuck in the township theory for more than ten days, and a large number of Taiwanese ministers from Kuaiji refused to express their views on this, implying that Wang Bin was not welcome to go to the hometown.The price they proposed was to have Kong Hun serve as Wang Bin's deputy. Although Wang Bin hated it deeply, he had put in so much effort, and the price he had to pay was almost the same. How could he give up halfway!

Therefore, he had no choice but to agree to this condition, which was clearly a false request.However, this does not mean that he will be able to bear this tone. Although Kong is an old man in Kuaiji, he may not have such a strong local appeal.After digging deeper, he found that besides Kong himself, there was Shen Zhezi, that nasty little raccoon behind him, working together, he was stuck in the result of his rural theory!
Kong Hun was obviously not qualified enough, but he was the head of the official, which made it difficult for Wang Bin to recruit other officials.Just like Cao Man's qualifications, he is enough to serve as the governor of a county, how could he live under Kong Hun!

Therefore, the concession this time greatly lowered the standard of Wang Bin's staff. Many old acquaintances who had already negotiated their intentions also resigned after learning of this appointment, unwilling to be humiliated.In the end, Wang Bin recruited enough manpower, and almost none left resigned. With the level of his current staff, it's no wonder that he can compete with Shen Chong's subordinates when he goes to Kuaiji!
Fortunately, Cao Man is righteous, even if he is in vain, he will follow him to help.To Wang Bin, this was like sending charcoal in the snow, and he felt very grateful in his heart, and even said: "If this trip is successful, I can jump to the next day, and today's job will be Nagasawa's job tomorrow!"

After Cao Man heard the words, he said with a smile: "I am in the capital, but I am just an idler. This time I went south with Brother Shiru, even if it was just to visit the beautiful scenery, it was a worthwhile trip. The son is secretly restraining, but after all, he has already settled down. It is useless to hate it, so we should make good use of it, and don't be evil to the Xiangzong because of it."

Hearing Cao Man's generosity, Wang Bin couldn't help being even more grateful. Of course he understood that the little raccoon son might have alienated him. What a good face.

Kong Hun also knew that he was not welcome, so after boarding the boat, except for the necessary greetings and greetings, he seldom lingered in front of Wang Bin to be annoying.Although the situation was a bit embarrassing, he knew very well that this situation was only temporary. When Kuaiji officially took up his post, no matter how much Wang Bin hated him, he had to rely on him if he wanted to communicate effectively with the villagers.

Thanks to the year-round operation of the Wuzhong Business Alliance, and it is now a node of autumn floods, this line goes all the way south, and the waterway is unimpeded. It has passed Taihu Lake and reached the territory of Wuxing.

Since crossing the river, although Wang Bin has had many foreign assignments, he has never had the opportunity to come to Wuxing, the hometown of money and food in the east of the Yangtze River, so he is also curious.So after passing Taihu Lake, I have been lingering on the deck, admiring the scenery on both sides of the waterway.

It's just that it didn't make me happy because it was a flood season. Although the waterway was wide, it was also very busy. The boats and boats that came and went were densely packed, most of them were fully loaded cargo ships, and the Wuzhong Business League was hung on it. The flag logo completely blocks the line of sight, making it almost impossible to see the views on both sides.

"These raccoon dogs are really disgusting. They are not satisfied with their own richness in the country, but they still want to be bad guys and use their goods to plunder the people's fat. They are simply thieves who steal the country!"

Wang Bin pointed to the cargo ships passing by on the left and right side of the boat, and cursed fiercely: "This town is rich in water and soil, which is quite impressive, but it's a pity that the people live in a humble way, and they are despicable!"

Cao Man laughed beside him and said, "Wucheng ahead is where Xie Youru lives. Brother Shiru, if you really hate seeing these merchant ships disturbing your eyes, you might as well ask him to build a special waterway later, so that you can go straight with the current."

After Wang Bin heard this, he snorted coldly and said no more.Before he left the capital, the Taichung imperial edict had already been issued to the local government, and Xie Po was once an old official of his family, so he should come to pay a visit because of emotion and reason.Therefore, Wang Bin intends to take advantage of this opportunity to share with Xie Po, hoping to cooperate with each other and fight against Wu Zhongzong's bandits together.
